Just curious what good websites have good Tutorials and explainations on how to do stuff? Im primarly interested in doing stuff from the console. I have vmworkstation running versions of OpenSUSE and Mandriva on my computer now. My goal is to fully be able to run "cent os"

I would well advise actually installing CentOS or Fedora in a dual boot setup. Or if you really want to get to know the insides LFS or Gentoo. But TBH the question you are asking is a bit too broad. If you could tell what specifically you are wanting to use it for any advice could be a lot more, erm, focused.

I am personally a big fan of the "jump in feet first" approach. So doing that and coming back with questions when you get stuck might be a good idea.
